I keep hearing on the radio that he killed himself in the presence of the head coach and GM. Just awful. Feel bad for the girlfriend's family as well.

I see what you're saying and I even agree with it, but I'm sure there's a side of it that involves rescheduling the game, the flights, the people working on a non-scheduled day, the lost revenue from a moved game, etc.

Again, I can't emphasize enough that I'd have no problem with them canceling the game, but I'm sure a bunch of those factors will be cited as to why they can't or won't.

this is a terrible thing, but i don't have a problem with the game not being cancelled.

When people commit a very public suicide like this, there is usually a string of events leading up to it that - with 20/20 hindsight - will have lots of people feeling guilty. Don't mean to imply that others bear responsibility for this man's actions...... but this sort of thing never just up and happens out of the blue.
